The Ultimate Game Day Snack: Crispy Homemade Chicken Fries
Remember those addictive chicken fries from your favorite fast-food chain? It’s time to bring that irresistible crunch straight to your own kitchen. These homemade chicken fries feature tender strips of chicken breast seasoned with garlic powder, onion powder, thyme, and parsley, then coated in a golden, crispy breadcrumb shell. The secret is a perfectly balanced coating system with cornstarch for extra crunch and a hint of sugar for subtle caramelized flavor. Crispy on the outside, incredibly tender on the inside, they pair beautifully with everything from classic ketchup to creamy ranch or tangy blue cheese. Pure delicious chicken fries that taste even better than what you remember. The recipe can be found here. You want the chicken to be mostly frozen when you start prepping. It’s OK if it’s not but it will be easier to work with. Slice each chicken breast into ¼-inch strips. If you think the strips … Continue reading

State Fair Home Edition
The Minnesota State Fair is in full swing. Do you plan on going? I know a lot of people that plan on attending the fair and a lot of people that don’t, for various reasons.

However, that doesn’t mean I can’t enjoy some delicious fair food at home, and you can do the same! First off, I want to share with you a link to a blog I wrote last year. The blog is called Your Favorite MN State Fair Food…at Home, because that’s what the blog is about – creating and enjoying all the classic state fair foods in the comfort of your own home. I wrote this blog because the fair was cancelled last year and wanted to give everyone the option of … Continue reading

Beer Battered Chicken Sandwich with Lime Coleslaw
I love a good fried chicken sandwich and want to share my go-to recipe with you. This Beer Battered Chicken Sandwich with Lime Coleslaw is crispy, juicy, and doesn’t disappoint. The batter includes beer, giving it a light and crisp texture once fried, plus a slight beer flavor comes through in the crust and who doesn’t love that? I suggest using a brown ale for the best batter flavor but any malty ale or heavier seasonal beer (such as Oktoberfest) will work. You only use 2 cups of beer so you will have a little extra in the bottle to enjoy while you cook 🙂 The chicken is only fried once and then finished in the oven. Once an internal temperature of 165 degrees is reached, you could fry the chicken again for a very short amount of time to maximize crunch. I’ve never done this but if you like … Continue reading
